Sampling and Deployment Summary
Predicted Movements
Each seal is released with a bio-logger that provides regular updates on movement and behavior. For each seal, the observed locations are used to fit a predicted path. Both the predicted track (line) and the observed bio-logger locations (points) are shown on the map. The ship track of the R/V Norseman II is shown in black and can be toggled on/off using the layer selector in the upper left corner.
Because some of the tracks span the 180 anti-meridian, you may need to re-center and zoom the map to the Bering Sea region.
